No, not using Dropbox.

It seems that my account is somehow corrupted. Sometimes I can not sign in or out my Apple ID, my iCloud drive is completely inaccessible from this Mac (although fine with other machine), etc. Safe Mode reboots after some 20 seconds, reinstall Ventura didn't change things, all disks seem OK. What else to try?

If I create another account, just for trying, and sign in with my normal AppleID, then all is fine!

Obviously, I'd prefer to fix my normal account.

Any hints welcome...
